Default Nismo in dealer showroom, Abu Dhabi, UAE

Once again, I took a job over in this part of the world. Some co-workers & I went car shopping, & strolled into the Nissan dealership in Abu Dhabi City. This Z was one of the few cars in the showroom, so I made a bee line to it. The more I looked at it, the more questions I had on whether it left the factory the way it is in the pictures. The sales staff didn’t know (no surprise to me).

The cars in this part of the world are coded as GCC (Gulf Corporative Council) spec, which I’m coming to find out means a larger radiator & a/c condenser, & a different radio, maybe some changes in marker lights, & a kilometers per hour speedo.

You can see the front fascia is shorter than US spec Nismos, but it has splitters(?) on the front corners. The door sills have the lighted Z logo , but the interior has absolutely no special Nismo features.

The rear fascia looked bone stock US to me, with no ducting at all. The rear hatch did have a spray nozzle for washer fluid to go along with the wiper, & I dig that it has the lower red fog light & clear stop lights.

This lovely 2010, yes, 2010, can be yours for 194,600 Dhms, which is $53,000. No thanks, just looking.
